Local Removals Bedford

Anyone looking for local removals Bedford area should not underestimate just how challenging and stressful this can be. Even if you are moving to a different home in the same town or a neighbouring village, it’s easy to underestimate the stress and anxiety this can cause. It’s important to remember that it’s normal to feel overwhelmed when you have so much to organise. One thing that can really help is choosing a good and reliable local removals company.

White & Company has a proven track record for carrying out removals in the Bedford area. They were established in 1871 and over the years there is almost nothing they have not moved!

In a recent survey, two thirds of people voted moving house at the top of their stress list. It has been shown that moving house triggers more anxiety than relationship breakdowns, divorce and starting a new job! This is because a house move represents change and transition in life, something we’re not as good at coping with as we might think! We all like routine and familiarity and when you move house you have none of these.

It is helpful to give yourself as much time as possible to deal with your home move. Try to clear your schedule around the time of a move and take some time off work before and after the move day. Get someone to look after your children, so that you can concentrate on making sure everything runs smoothly.
